RQM Admin Documentation
We had our RQM setup and now we are reviewing how each area was setup Test Plans, Test Cases, Requirments etc.. As the acting Admin I want documentation on how to remove and add categories to different areas within Test cases. I reviewed this site and IBM and there is only basic RQM documentation. I'm looking for Admin documentation to create global settings or removing items.
Example: Under Test Cases within the Summary section we have a Category called Trigger. I would like to remove that and leave Application, Automation, Priority, Test Activity, and weight. Or setup and lock the display settings for test cases and test plans. Right now users can modify this by using the "Change Display Setting" button.

Here are some links to get you started. I think you need project-level admin of categories and template management for your Test Cases and Test Plans.
General category info:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/c_organize_with_categories.html
Admin of categories:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_setup_categories.html
Admin of sections viewable in TCs and TPs through templates:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_cretptemplate.html
General section management (can be done via templates):
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/rqmhelp/v2r0/topic/com.ibm.rational.test.qm.doc/topics/t_manage_sections.html
I hope this helps.

What version are you using? There is a lot of new documentation on RQM Administration in the version 4.0 information center.
